Of Cows and Crows: poems - 4921

In Of Cows and Crows poet Shelley Getten evokes ten years of life on a hardscrabble farm in Central Minnesota as seen through the eyes of a young girl. It's a coming-of-age tale in which the narrator navigates the emotional tumult of her teens while also experiencing the isolation, financial difficulties, and other challenges of living on a farm. Along the way, the poems subtly depict how such a childhood can foster a deep connection to the land and other living things—a process that can heal wounds and strengthen our shared humanness. Of Cows and Crows is rooted in aspects of rural life—poignant, evocative, and dreadful— that are experienced by few, but are likely to be of interest to many.
